Dr. Rewa Wright is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Creative Practice, at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT). Dr Wright is an interaction designer and artist with a specific interest in technologies of computer vision, gestural interfaces, sustainable development, biomimicry and design thinking for social good. Her practice-based research in design takes a rigorous, investigative approach to emerging technologies, with a focus on new areas of exploration and emerging technology. Her PhD dissertation (UNSW) blended augmented reality, haptic and gestural interfaces, new materialism, and agential realism to offer a new method and techniques for performance in mixed and extended reality. Rewa’s practice-based design research has been selected for inclusion in noted exhibitions, such as Ars Electronica Gardens (2020 and 2021), the SIGGRAPH Asia Art Gallery (2019), and the International Symposium in Electronic Art (2014-present).
